Q: What is the best wood for a farm fence?

• <div><p>The best wood for a farm fence is pressure-treated wood that will stand up to various weather conditions, animal contact, and moisture. Farm fences need to resist rot and damage, so choose a species such as cedar or redwood. The natural oils in these woods give them decay resistance, which also makes them ideal for other fence types, such as a wooden <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-snow-fence.htm">snow fence</a>.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a fence and a privacy fence?

• <div><p>All fences offer some degree of privacy, but standard perimeter fences may not be designed with that in mind.

Additionally, privacy fences typically offer fewer gaps to peek in through than standard fences, though you can likely adjust that to suit your preferences. </p></div>

You can ask your local building department or fence installation company if your fence project will require a permit. If so, you can expect it to cost between <b>$20 and $60</b>. Your fence installer should pull the permit for you.
